This time around, our update is a little more direct & to-the-point as we have a promo for S05E11 "The Naked and The Dead" to pass along that previews the volatile situation the team finds itself in the middle of while searching for a lost boy. But to kick off the clip? Yup, some fun, playful banter between Bradford & Chen…

The 13 months of her rookie year were two and a half seasons of our show. We couldn't just jump right into it. Once we started to go down that road with Dim and Juicy and the undercover work and everything, the last thing I would want to do is rush it or to do it in a way that felt surface," series showrunner Alexi Hawley explained during a recent interview. regarding the way the Chenford storyline has played out. "Audiences like romance; that's what they want more than anything. The big Chenford fans have always seen this as romance, even when it's not on the page, so to speak. But we've got to a place now where we have to keep going forward with it. There will have to be obstacles… there will have to be drama… there will have to be stuff, but never in a manipulative way. That would be really mean to the audience."
